Inelastic scattering by particles of arbitrary shape.

The shape effect of inelastic scattering by small particles is investigated using geometrical optics. The particles considered are described by surfaces composed of triangles. In order to determine the accuracy of this model, the results for an approximated sphere with different degrees of discretization are compared with the result for a smooth sphere. The triangulation method is then used for describing a superellipsoid. This enables us to consider inelastic scattering for a variety of particles by changing only a few parameters.

Inelastic scattering on particles with inclusions.

The investigation of particles with inclusions is of high interest in many parts of scientific research. Raman scattering is very good at yielding information on the internal composition of the particle. We use a geometrical-optics-based technique to determine the angle dependence of the inelastic scattering on particles with several spherical inclusions.

Resonant inelastic scattering by use of geometrical optics.

We investigate the inelastic scattering on spherical particles that contain one concentric inclusion in the case of input and output resonances, using a geometrical optics method. The excitation of resonances is included in geometrical optics by use of the concept of tunneled rays. To get a quantitative description of optical tunneling on spherical surfaces, we derive appropriate Fresnel-type reflection and transmission coefficients for the tunneled rays. We calculate the inelastic scattering cross section in the case of input and output resonances and investigate the influence of the distribution of the active material in the particle as well as the influence of the inclusion on inelastic scattering.
